Mydriacyl 1% Eye Drop - 15ml
Fast and Effective Pupil Dilation
Mydriacyl 1% Eye Drop is a prescription medication used primarily for dilating the pupil (mydriasis) during eye examinations or surgical procedures. It contains the active ingredient tropicamide, which temporarily relaxes the muscles in the eye that control pupil size, allowing for a thorough examination of the retina and other internal structures of the eye. Mydriacyl is widely used by ophthalmologists and optometrists for diagnostic purposes.
Benefits of Mydriacyl 1% Eye Drop
- Pupil Dilation: Quickly and effectively dilates the pupils, providing a clearer view of the eye’s interior during examinations.
- Short-Acting: The effects of Mydriacyl are temporary, typically lasting for a few hours, which means normal vision returns relatively quickly after use.
- Facilitates Eye Exams: Essential for retinal examinations, eye surgeries, and other diagnostic procedures that require a clear view of the back of the eye.
- Easy Application: Comes in a convenient dropper bottle for easy administration.
When to Use Mydriacyl 1% Eye Drop
- Eye Examinations: Used by eye care professionals to dilate the pupil for a detailed examination of the retina and other internal structures.

How to Use Mydriacyl 1% Eye Drop
- Dosage: The dosage and frequency of application will be determined by your eye care provider. Generally, one or two drops are placed in the eye(s) about 15-20 minutes before the examination or procedure.
- Administration: Tilt your head back, pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket, and squeeze the prescribed number of drops into the pocket. Close your eyes gently and avoid blinking for a few moments.
- Avoid Contamination: Do not touch the dropper tip to any surface, including your eye, to avoid contamination.
